nearly all killed in the subsequent inef

The Osaka men, from the rigiit wing,
while advancing through the water along
the shore, encountered a body of Rus

ensued. Roth sides were waist-deep in
the sea. When the Russians finally re
heated the water was literally crimson.
Roth sides lost heavily .
During the day the Russians used sev

the trenches, after they had been cap

making it evident that the Russians in
tended their defenses to be permanent.
'S'liree-t ornered I'lgSit.
Salem, Or., June 9 Now that the
membership of the Oregon heigslature
has been determined, the subject of or
ganizttion has been broached and prob
b'e candidates for the presiding offices
are being discussed.
It is known that Senator Brownell, of
Clackamas County, desires to succeed
himself as President of the Senate, and
he lias not hesitated to let those inter
ested know ot his candidacy. Changes
in the membership of the Senate and
new candidates in the field will make
the contest entirely different from what
it was two years ago and probably no
!ess interesting. Senator Kuykendall,
of Lane, will be a candidate for the Pres
idency and will take much of the strength
Brownell had in 1003. Kuykendall was
a Brownell supporter two years ago, as
also was his associate, S. A. Booth, who
is now counted as a supporter of Kuy
kendall. It is said in political circles
that Senator May, of Multnomah, will
be a candidate, and if he gets into the
nee with the backing of the Multnomah
delegation, the thref3-cornered content
will have added interest.
T. B. Kay, of Marion County, is very
frequently mentioned as a candidate for
the Speakership ot the House. He is one
of the few members of the last House
who were re-elected. He has been urged
to become a candidate and has been aE
sured of the united support of his own
delegation, and it is very probable that
he wid enter the race. There has been
some talk, also, of W. I Vawter, of Jack
son County, as a probable candidate for
the Speakership, but it is not known
whether he has any ambitious in that
direction.
I"l 'J'o TaetT.
Because part of the land owned by I.
H. Tatle on the route of the Celilo Canal
is below high-water mark, according to
an opinion rendered recently by the Attorney-General
of the United States, the
land can be condemned and taken with
out paying one cent for it. Mr. Tafi'e's
refusal to sell for the price offered him
by the State of Oregon may result in the
seizure of the land, anyway, unless he
finally accepts the state's offer.
Attorney-General Knox has held that
in a case where the Government Engi
neers wish, in the improvement of navi
gation, to make use of land which lies
between high and low-water mark, they
can do so without compensation to the
riparian owner. The case iu which he
rendered this opinion was in Pennsylva
nia, where riparian owDers on the Mo
nongahela River had attempted extor
tion from the Government. According
to the laws of Pennsylvania, the owner
ship of riparian lands extends utquali
fiedly to high-water marks, but is q;.ali
tied in the intermediary distance between
the high and low water marks. In that
case the engineers have, according to
the Attorney-General's opinion, a right
to use the property in the improvement
of navigation and pay the owner nothing
for it.
Seventeen applicants for admis
sion to the bar were admitted to
practice at a session of the supreme
court at Salem Wednesday.
Kighty-two delegates are in at
tendance at the 19th annual con
vention of the Oregon Sunday

POLICEMAN AND HIS CLUB.
Used It Too Vigorously After Being
Reprimanded Did Not Use
It Enough.
Apropos of Mr. Jerome's Chicago
speech in which lie advocated strenuous
treatment of thugs by the poplice," said
Lawyer Frank Moss, uc"ording to the
Xrw York Times, "when I was a ixjlice
conmiissioiier I had a little experience
of the philosophy of the club versus
moral suasion.
"One day a fine yourg policeman, of
but a few months' standing on the force,
was brought before me charged with
brutally clubbing a prisoner. He was
perfectly frank in admiring that he had
admin hie red the beating. 'Sure I was
beating into his hide the consciousness of
his crime," he commented defensively.
"Of course 1 advised the exercise ot
more gentleness in the future and dis
missed the youth with a reprimand. I had
completely forgotten the incident until
! hree months later, when the same young
policeman was presented again, this
time- charged with allowing a prisoner to
escape. In his tlefensp he exclaimed:
" 'It's all because I dhhi't. give him the
stick. I was going to remind him of his
cins with a few taps, when I remembered
what you said to me, Mr. Commissioner.
Then I grabs him firmly but ginfly and
starts to lead him off. While walking
aloVig I began to talk to him about his
crime and the consequ"nces. I got so
eloquent and pleased with my flow of
words that I loosened my grip, when he
broke away, hit me behind the ear, and
knocked me into an area way.'
"Here was a stickler that I reserved
for several days to meditate over."
NOISE OF A MOVING TRAIN.
Locomotive Engineers Are Not Dis
turbed by the Rattle of Cars
Over the Rails,
The locomotive engineer was talking
about his run, says the I'ittsburg Dis
patch. He maintained that, with the
roar and rumble of the engine directly
beneath him and of the train thunder
ing behind, he had no trouble in hear
ing what his fireman on the other side
of the cab said to him. and the fireman
could understand and answer. The
noise of the train seems to be some
thing extra, according to him, to which
he has become so accustomed that it
does not interfere in any way with his
ordinary faculties. It appeared, from
his remarks, to be like a dull clatter of
numerous typewriters in a big office,
which never interferes with speech or
thought once a person has become ac
customed to the noise. He asserted
that he knew of engineers who had
become stone deaf when they were not
in the cab. and their friends hail to yell
to them to make themselves under
stood. But as soon as the veterans
stepped into the engine and got. the
rattle of the train in their ear3 they
could hear the ordinary conversational
vole15, despite th.p thunder of the ma
chinery and the wheels. As soon as
the train stopped they were deaf again
lor that inurval, only to be right as
soon as the pandemonium of the
wheels shook up their aural openings.
